Deji Karim RB Southern Illinois

Ht: 5'9
Wt: 209
Strengths:
A small, compact built. Excellent strength of his size. Runs with a low center of gravity and is very tough to bring down. Adequate speed.
Weaknesses:
Lacks the size and strength to be a feature back. Level of competition is a minor concern.
Comments:
Pronounced day-zhee kareem. Karim is one of the more underrated prospects in the draft. His running style is reminiscent of Maurice Jones-Drew. He may never reach Jones-Drew's level of success, but he could certainly be a valuable addition to someone's backfield in the late rounds of the draft.
